I applied in-person. I interviewed at Tesla in Apr 2025
Interview
The interview was cut short due to management coming. Their emissions are all over, hopefully they bring a recent grad in to clean it up. Be prepared, they couldn't tell i was using GPT for the right answers.

Question 1
What are your thoughts of our glorious and unproblematic leader?
I applied online. I interviewed at Tesla (Draper, UT)
Interview
Spent 3+ weeks going back and forth with recruiter to schedule interview. No apology, no explanation, just repeat template interviews. No touch point with me for a screen either. Just an onsite interview scheduled. Horrible recruiting experience, nevertheless, because I was on it, I confirmed interview and got the job!

Question 1
Why do I want to work for Tesla and what are my career goals in the next 2-5 years?
I applied online. I interviewed at Tesla (Eden Prairie, MN)
Interview
after applying, I received an email from their nationwide recruiter asking for my availability for the next 2 weeks to set up an interview.
I answered and received no response.
The following Monday I got the same email from the same recruiter, and this time my response got a response.
I came in and interviewed, it took about a half hour and was told that the GM would enter her notes into the system and then Tesla would decide from there if there would be a second interview.
At the end of the week I got an email that they were moving forward with someone more closely aligned, and was encouraged to try again in the future.
